Rules Of Discipline

Students represent their family and school and must display a high standard of behaviour inside and outside the school premises. The students must strictly follow the following guidelines: -

• The sound of the first bell at 8.00 a.m. announces the time of the morning attendance. By the time the second bell sounds, which is at 8.10 a.m., all students accompanied by the class teachers should assemble for prayer in the designated auditorium. After the assembly, each class should go quietly in a line to their respective classrooms.
• The school song shall be sung by all students in the assembly in the morning every Monday, led by the school choir.
• At the time of afternoon dispersal students should leave the school from designated gates. Those using buses should be seated in the buses promptly and not move around in the bus parking as this is unsafe and causes delay.
